Title: SAS Jeep
Post by: Bob C on May 24, 2025, 09:39:56 PM
After finishing the LRDG jeep, I've started a 1/35 SAS jeep using Tamiya's US army Jeep because it was the more modern version that Tamiya make. I also have Eduard's brass etching to use.

Nice work Bob.
I have one of these in the 'stash' so I'll be watching how it turns out after the 'Bob' treatment.
No doubt we will see it suitably 'posed' against one of your photographic backdrops.

Didn't we have a discussion recently about how to tell water from fuel? I know the Germans marked theirs but wasn't ours done differently?

Not able to tell water from fuul (unless its rum-thats fuel to me) but talked to an old Russian marine engineer once and he told me he dropped some black pepper in his vodka because during the war the fuel tank and the vodka tank was next to each other - so leakage occured and the pepper collected the bits of fuel and dropped to the bottom of the glass.  Strange how things come back to you when somebody talks about something different  :o  :o  :o
